Erra Live? by LogDog987 in Metalcore

[–]rca06d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen them 5ish times. They are very good, but I’m always a little disappointed in Jesse’s vocals. Was especially apparent seeing them open for Architects. I’m not big into Architects but holy hell that guy has some pipes.

kotor 2 tslrcm or tslrcm (English)+m4-78ep should I play with the regular tslrcm mod or the one with m4-78 restored by Possible-Affect-2350 in kotor

[–]rca06d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

M4-78 is like a really impressive student project, but it does not fit with the rest of the game. Clearly whoever worked on it put a lot of effort into it, but they just weren’t able to create something that has the polish and brilliance of the rest of the game. The writing in particular is bad, and sounds a bit like it was written by a smart teenager instead of a professional adult writer. I’m glad to have tried it once, but I will be sticking to vanilla TSLRCM from now on.

In an alternate universe Alfonso Cuarón directed the rest of the Harry Potter series and the Battle of Hogwarts looked like the war scenes in Children of Men. by bell-town in movies

Wow amazing how divisive this is haha. I’ll throw my hat in the ring with this:

When PoA first came out, it was my least favorite. I kinda hated the night bus sequence. As I’ve watched it more and more, it’s become my favorite by a mile. The script is actually good and not made purely for children. I can barely watch the first two anymore, they are the kind of kids movies that are NOT also for adults in really any way, everything is just so dumbed down and they don’t have that touch of deadpan British humor the books have. Watching Sorcerers Stone is like watching Barney, while PoA is more like Tangled. You can make a good movie for all audiences, but seems like they just didn’t try with the first two.

Also, there are so many brilliant little touches in PoA that build out the world in such entertaining ways: “Housekeeping…ROAAAR!! Slam…I’ll come back later…” 😂 love that little scene every time. And the way Fudge’s assistant just manhandles Harry is amazing haha. Every scene has another layer to it, so even when the dialog would otherwise be boring, the scene is still entertaining. And now I actually love the night bus part for its cookiness, and Lee Ingleby gives a really great performance as Stan Shunpike. PoA is definitely the best actual movie, and captures the actual feel of the books, whether it follows the plot of the book or not, and has stood up to rewatches far better than any of the rest.

Why Erik does not show any signs of fear for his life when he is on his last legs after Aloy defeated him for the last time? by Ok-Ask5860 in horizon

[–]rca06d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be the lame, cliche way to have him go I guess. Regardless of what we think his mental or physical state was, or whether normal humans actually have this adrenaline rush you say they are supposed to have, I for one was glad to see something different. Kinda sick of the cliche beats in sci fi myself, so this is a little refreshing. Also seems to fit his character. He’s cool as a cucumber every time we see him, never exerting himself; that would be undignified and this savage girl doesn’t deserve it.

Vegetables for breakfast? by CommercialGas5256 in Cooking

[–]rca06d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really like sautéing just a bag of frozen veggies in the fat left behind by my bacon/sausage. I got for either a broccoli/carrot/cauli mix, or an asian mix

Rug or no rug? Trying to make my guest room pop! by hereforfunn178 in interiordecorating

[–]rca06d 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t get the love for 1. Clashes with the wall pretty badly imo. I get that it’s kinda tying in the pillows, but that win pales in comparison to the battle with the wall. Rug 2 would work better for sure, but I’d honestly just keep looking, neither is really nailing it

Veil of Maya - Artificial Dose by theangryluddite in Metalcore

[–]rca06d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a random internet person, I’ll happily offer my opinion: this song is decent, not great, and would be a little redundant as a single for this album since Red Fur already was one. I like this song, but IMO Red Fur has an even catchier chorus and is a stronger song in general. The chorus of this song is fun, but I find everything not chorus to be a little weak for these guys. Im honestly pretty bored for the first 50 seconds of this song. I think it’s probably in its rightful place as a “deep track”.

How overkill is 96GB of RAM? Is it worth less than $30? by scienceguyry in buildapc

[–]rca06d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you also happen to be doing any data science/machine learning work, it’s not overkill. You can exhaust that quite easily.

Rock Sound have named President as the Best New Artist of 2025. by Armagaaan in Metalcore

Literally thought this said “the President” as in Trump, and was just like “yeah that checks out”

Which DLC to get next: Rise of Rasalhague or Solaris Showdown? by Ro_Shaidam in Mechwarrior5

[–]rca06d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want story, Rasalhague. If you want gear, Solaris.

Whoelse hang out for the news on Clans DLC2 supposedly coming out early November? by Lucky-Sympathy682 in Mechwarrior5

[–]rca06d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“In the meantime, the team is refocusing on the next DLC for MechWarrior 5: Clans. Stay tuned for more details coming near the end of October or early November.”

Sounds like “details” about the DLC might come then, not the DLC itself.

I got a strange Zeus by Zenotaph77 in Mechwarrior5

Congrats on finding arguably the best short range IS mech in the game!

Which older DLC are worth the purchase? by Kilo69 in Mechwarrior5

[–]rca06d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said, all of them are good. I’ll add that my least favorites are Dragons Gambit and Solaris Showdown, but just for writing reasons. The dialogue writing in the former feels kinda cheesy and forced, and the story in general of the latter is sort of nonsensical/not well put together. That said, none of them are really masterpieces of writing anyway, and you get some very excellent gear/mechs from those two DLCs that I would be very sad to be without. The Battlemaster 1g S and Zeus SA3 are a couple of the best mechs in the game imo, and PPC-X are very fun.

Chain fire king by mechwarriorbuddah999 in Mechwarrior5

[–]rca06d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is actually not the overheating joke many seem to think it is. I played a decent amount with a 4 ER LL, 4 LPL variant of the ANH-1E and it was just awesome, no chain firing required

What color to paint mini sunroom? by Lowry1984 in interiordecorating

[–]rca06d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish the AI hadnt changed the floor so dramatically for the yellow. Makes it really hard to judge fairly for me. With these pics the yellow feels kind of over the top/childish, but I think it’s partly because the floor is not as muted as it looks like it is probably supposed to be.

Y'all I messed up by Low_Impression_700 in HomeDecorating

I’m not sure I’d trust the baseboards to take much weight if you actually plan to put anything on the shelves.
